“Falta uno en Puerto Ricoooooo🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷🇵🇷“

“great place located in Brooklyn. come out and support!“

“Ricoooooo los tacos y quesadillas! Se hizo poca fila. Atienden rápido. Nos encantó!!!“

“I’ve never felt more at home in a restaurant than Deser B. And his team made me feel tonight. He was the most authenticly kind and hospitable person I’ve met in New York and needs to be promoted to running all of the stores the way he runs this one.
This was the most authentic Mexican taco in north America. Corn tortillas made in House for each order fresh. I tried all of the protein sources and every single one of them slapped. 20 out of 5 stars. I mean if you don’t go here while you are in town you are crazy.

The toppings and salsa were the best I’ve ever had. The tacos were ready in less than 1 min after I ordered. They are obsessed with being the best and it stands out“

“3 words — Short. Rib. Confit. Get it now. My only complaint is that I cannot get it delivered to me in Cincinnati...“

“Playa Betty's has great tasting tacos and the staff and atmosphere is awesome! ❣️ frm:🇯🇵🇺🇸“

“Needed some late night tacos, didn’t expect much, totally blown away. These were better than any sit-down restaurant I’ve been to in ages. Perfect portion, tons of flavor in the chicken, friendly guys, fantastic price. Total hidden gem.“

“It's easy here to become desensitized to fantastic food when you live in Greenwich Village. But every simple meal at The Little Taco House is still magical. Order three or four tacos -- carnitas, chicken tinga, shrimp, and al pastor are the best, in that order -- with spicy salsa, and a tamarind Jaritos. Talk to (and tip!) the two kind, hard-working people behind the counter, and let them know you'd like your food to stay. Eat immediately, at the small metal chairs outside. Each bite will slow time just a little bit even though you are having an extremely efficient meal.“

“The pork chop was succulent and had the most amazing spice combination. The barbacoa was the best I have ever had. Not a fan of the mezcal, but I gave it a try. Other more common drinks looked great with a good pour. Good vibe and open late with a super friendly staff!“

“Nice after work place. Very friendly and the food was good 😊“

“nice local mexican place with decent prices. i’ve only ever ordered their burritos but they’re a good size and the fillings are good. some are a bit oily but the flavor is on point so i don’t mind. the wait can be long for busy periods (like lunchtime) but overall a good place to go to for a burrito instead of chains like chipotle.“

“Asked for a torta with enchilada pork at 8:30 am. They quickly and efficiently accommodated a request they likely don’t get at that hour. The torta was absolutely excellent and I’ve had a hundred or more after overtime a decade in so cal and Mexico. They do it right. Will be back.“

“Always walked past this place but never had the opportunity to try. Finally brought my parents here for them to experience Mexican food and this place was perfect!! Right from the decor, the tall open windows and the open kitchen, this place was a total vibe!
The spicy margaritas were delicious and a pitcher was perfect for the four of us. We also had the Guac and Totopos (freshly made tortilla chips). My dad tried the fried Baja fish taco and seemed to really enjoy it!“

“Taste was also really good 😊“

“Some of the best birria tacos I’ve had in Manhattan. The staff is friendly, patient, and very fast. What a wonderful place!“

“This place is super cute and the drinks are very good!! Went with my sister for a trifecta kinda day and the margs did not disappoint! We didn’t have the food but the people around us ordered some items and it looked and smelled super great!

The place is pretty small as far as like it’s just the front area but they have a bar style table in the middle and tables on both sides. Music was pretty standard we didn’t go on a brunch day so not sure if it’s more turnt but we had a good time! Yes they have Tajin and they can put that on your rim!

We also went back a second time and go to go drinks and they were delicious there’s like over 15 flavors so that makes it super fun!

I didn’t get much videos but I did get a super cool photo! Try it out affordable prices and great drinks!“

“went to the west 43rd street location in Manhattan. huge portions and excellent food“

“Perfect! Tacos Al Pastor and Aquas Frescas“

“Possibly the best tacos I've ever had.“

“Had a great time at Flats Fix, the margaritas were strong but not overpowering, and delicious, and the nachos and duck tacos were heavenly! The service was quick and friendly with great suggestions for both food and drink. We will definitely be back soon!“

“We were in NYC for a couple of days, The Overlook was next door to our hotel so of course we went in. The first night we had a great few hours with Sara the bartender. She was super friendly and fun to chat with. We went again the next night to watch Monday night football. Ended up at the bar with the owner and a few of his friends. We had a blast! The wings were great, really good sauce. The bartenders were wonderful. We left feeling like part of the family!! Highly recommend stopping in there.“

“Food was delicious but service was slow even though the restaurant was half full. I went during restaurant week and the menu was limited and what I originally wanted wasn’t available. I’ll give it another try since I live in the neighborhood.“

“Resident DJ is openly gay bashing on Instagram“

“everything is amazing about this place. food. staff. margaritas. everything. place just opened in the east village and I've been there 5 times already in the last month. simply AMAZING“

“Best Mexican I've had in NYC. Actual Mexican flavor to the meat and rice and salsas, with everything fresh (including the homemade tortilla chips).

I've spent time in Mexico and grew up around homemade Mexican food in CA, and NYC usually misses the mark. But this place does everything right. I finally found my NYC hookup.“

“The food was fantastic. It's about the balance of savory meat, melted cheese, crisp lettuce, ripe tomatoes, and tangy pickles, all enhanced by the richness of sauces like ketchup, mustard, or aioli. Every bite should be a delightful combination of savory, salty, tangy, and sweet notes, creating a truly satisfying culinary experience.“

“A great evening of food and friends!“

“I just want to thank Lex for making my best friend’s birthday so fun! She was so helpful, kind, and fun. She has great taste in music and kept us moving all night! The food was also good and the hookah lasted so long unlike some of these other spots smh. We will definitely be returning! Big shoutout to Lex again!“

“I just love that place every is kind The food is lean Fresh veggies 🍅 And those margaritas with watermelon and hibiscus I feel in heaven Kudos“

“A little gem near Port Authority! My coworker took me here to grab a quick lunch and it was worth it. You can get a delicious, rather large, burrito for $11 and they accept Venmo so you can easily get in and out of there. If you're in the area and craving some good Mexican food, give it a try.“
